Tua Tagovailoa is reportedly done for the season with a hip injury suffered in Saturday’s win over Mississippi State, but that hasn’t stopped him from keeping a positive attitude.
The Alabama Crimson Tide quarterback sent a tweet later in the day that thanked fans for their prayers and well wishes. He also indicated he would keep a spiritual faith despite the potentially devastating injury.
Thank you all for the prayers and well wishes! God always has a plan

A report said the junior quarterback dislocated his hip and suffered a fracture. There have been comparisons of his injury to the one that ended Bo Jackson’s football career. Former Chargers team doctor David Chao said he is concerned about potential long-lasting consequences.
Tagovailoa is a dual-threat quarterback who has long been viewed as a potential No. 1 overall pick and future NFL franchise quarterback. All of that is in jeopardy right now following the injury.
